The concert also features performances by Jason Robert Brown and Georgia Stitt, accompanied by a 9-piece band and a 30-voice chorus, under the musical direction of Thomas Murray.
Matthew Morrison, one of the stars of the hit FOX-TV series Glee whose Broadway credits include Hairspray, South Pacific, and The Light in the Piazza, will be awarded the first-ever CAP21 Distinguished Alumni Award via a special video appearance.
